A statement published by the Iranian foreign ministry Saturday said Iran's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the UN in Geneva, Mohsen Naziri-Asl, said those behind the draft resolution against Iran's human rights record were trying to deepen a rift among countries and consequently, impose their **rms upon others, IRNA reported Saturday. He made the remarks while addressing the 25th meeting of the UN Human Rights Council in the Swiss city. Naziri-Asl referred to the drafting of the anti-Iran resolution as a dangerous act which would encourage competition instead of cooperation and weaken the basic principles of the international body.
